Liverpool are said to have made contact with the agents of a Brazilian midfielder who could be a replacement for Fabinho at Anfield.
Over the last 48 hours, the Reds’ number three has been linked with a move to the Saudi Pro League, with Jordan Henderson also named as a potential high-profile recruit for the increasingly star-studded division.
If either or both of those players leave, Jurgen Klopp and Jorg Schmadtke will no doubt be determined to bring in at least one more midfield signing, and if the 29-year-old leaves, he could be replaced by a younger compatriot.
According to 90min, Liverpool are among several clubs that have spoken with the agents of Fluminense’s Andre Trindade, who is seeking £25 million for him, though Fulham appear to be in pole position to bring the 21-year-old to England.
